Is the mandatory setup to actually use 'DNS' to block access to gambling
sites? Its easy enough to script an automatic update if someone central
and with the necessary authority decides what it not allowed (eg a
governmental man). Could even stick the 'bad' names in DNS to do the
distribution.

Suggestion: Don't listen to Niall O'Reilly - although he may be right.
(tongue firmly stuck in cheek)

Note to self, run own recursive DNS resolver on my laptop whilst
travelling in Italy.

8.8.8.8 ?
